Roger Penrose used ingenious mathematical methods in his proof that black holes are a direct consequence of Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity. Einstein did not himself believe that black holes really exist, these super-heavyweight monsters that capture everything that enters them. Nothing can escape, not even light.

In January 1965, ten years after Einstein’s death, Roger Penrose proved that black holes really can form and described them in detail; at their heart, black holes hide a singularity in which all the known laws of nature cease. His groundbreaking article is still regarded as the most important contribution to the general theory of relativity since Einstein.

Why didn't he get this prize earlier?
The evidence for black holes was very strong even before direct pictures of black holes was taken, it's a bit strange they were overly cautious regarding this considering that they gave a nobel prize for lobotomy.

Even in the field of physics they have been far more willing to give nobel prizes based on weak evidence, especially when it comes to particle physics. For example all evidence for the higgs particle is from a single particle accelerator, it has not been independently verified to exist yet. They also gave a nobel prize for the detection of gravitational waves which wasn't idependently verified either.

My theory is that there is a particle whos sole atrributes are to not exist or connect with a particle like it and exist.

1 an object is at point A and travels to point B at the same height -> the object will travel through points: ab \ 2, ab \ 2 + ab \ 4, ab\ 2 + ab\ 4 + ab \ 8 BUT not through ... + ab \ infinite *said particle
as the object does reach point B, at all points mentioned object has the same potential height energy.

2 when the state of mater changes (solid to liquid to gas) energy and entropy (reverse organization lvl within mater) go up, but when gas to plasma energy goes up but entropy decreases. note most of space is plasma (*should be examples of teleport)

3 now, consider the space within which the object travels, while traveling the space around it it's : energy go up (heat is absorbed) and entropy goes down (air or space compresion) just like plasma.
in accordance to the object speed which determins the smallest amount of distance traveled in the shortest time span (... + ab \ "infinite") lets call this STP

perhapse STP can be manipulated by the la shatalie principle (by manipulating the environment)
